Fernando Cruz to Minister of War, September 21, 1882

[Inclosnre 4 in No. 20.—Translation.]

Señor Cruz to Minister of War.

Sir: I have had news from Peten, given me by a person who has just arrived from there. There are two hundred men from Campeche in the town of Concepcion preparing to march upon the capital of Peten.

I expect you to send me orders and two competent officers for the emergency, I deem expedient.

I am, &c.,

LUIS M. CRUZ.
